DC2 ITR s/shifter & lowering springs

**olda** · 29-01-2004 08:54 PM

Conflicting stories everywhere.
Anyone with DC2 ITR experience please!!!

a/ Short shifter Skunk2, C's, B&M other???????
"Felt" C's s/shifter; not much throw difference to the stock ITR shifter.

b/ Eibach Sportline or H&R lowered, progressive springs?
Both rated at 1.7" down FR & RR.
Had Eibach PRO KIT (1.3" down) on my VTiR, nice ride, but not low enough and the stock ITR springs are stiffer.

don't waste time with springs
get coilovers
2nd hand ones are abt 1.8-2k from z10

better off getting some tech specs off the websites i think.

one more thing, re short shifter, you should go and try really hard to get a Cz driver position adjustable shifter
they rock!

Nobody with DC2R experience

Nobody

1/ Do not trust coilovers

Heard many unfavourable stories :?
On the other hand, heard some good stories regarding the H&R springs on ITR. Just need some confirmation and also "where to get".

2/ Short shifter- position's not the issue. The length of throw is.
The ITR shifter is fine, but throw's a touch too long.

you have beeen reading too much US forums

2) driver position allows you to adjust position of knob relative to the wheel and length of the throw

you can pick up second hand coil-overs any where from $1000+.

i heard a while back that the skunk2 short shifter wasnt very good. dont know the truth but it was posted on here a few months ago.

1/ What's wrong with US forums

:shock:
2/ Adjustable shifter, adjustable throw - it's not clear from the picture.
And above all - C's suppose t/b out of business.
If the shifter is still available and the throw is adjustable, i'll give it a go.
Where to order C's adjustable shifter

STILL NO ONE WITH REAL LIFE EXPERIENCE.
SURELY, THERE MUST BE SOMEONE, WHO'S DONE IT

hehehe .. calm olda. ..
someone on clubrsx bought the c's short shift kit from tanghy a while back .. maybe he can refer u to them ..

i did a bit of perusing on honda-tech for s-shift kits ..
i heard bad things about skunk2/dc sports s-shift kits ..

the only kit i have all good things about is the one tanghy is selling ..
go for it
cant go wrong..
